Title: My first medieval hammered and potentially my first roman coin in one day.
Post by: BeachHunter101 on February 25, 2022, 09:16:49 PM
My finds from today,
I was over the moon today to find my first medieval hammered coin, what I'm presuming is an Edward III half groat? also found what I'm hoping is my first roman coin ??? :o cannot make out who the potential emperor is?
also found a lead gaming piece, spindle whorl, an unusual copper alloy with silver gilt fitting of some sort? Victoria silver 3 pence, medieval harness/curtain ring.

Thanks !  ;D
